Religion Toleration and British Writing 1790–1830 by Mark Canuel, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters

Mark Canuel examines the way that Romantic poets, novelists and political writers criticized the traditional religious conformity of British political unity. Canuel reveals how writers (including Jeremy Bentham, Ann Radcliffe, Maria Edgeworth and Lord Byron) undermined the validity of religion in the British state, and envisioned a tolerant and more organized mode of social inclusion and protection. He asserts that these writers considered their works to be political and literary commentaries on religious toleration. | Religion Toleration and British Writing 1790–1830 by Mark Canuel, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
